"Ask of the sinner how many impure thoughts he has consented to: he will tell you he cannot remember. But, brother, if you cannot tell the number, God can; and you know that a single willful immodest thought is enough to send you to Hell... From thoughts and words you proceed to acts, and to those innumerable impurities which those wretches roll and wallow in like swine, without ever being satisfied, for this vice is never satisfied."

Where does religious liberalism lead, if not to total skepticism? To say that all religions are equally good is to say that they are all equally true or false since they contradict one another. Do they truly mean to insinuate that truth and error, good and evil, are matters of opinion? This mindset can only lead to the death of reason, which is the only faculty distinguishing man from the beasts, to whose level man quickly descends when he abandons his reason. The skeptic does not think; he eats, he digests, he vegetates. Is this the human dignity so vigorously proclaimed, or is it not rather man's ultimate debasement?

"After spending the whole night with my two brothers in a car on a desert road to Jerusalem - since we feared being targeted by israelis on the main roads - we decided to go home at dawn. Around the entryway to my town, we were surprised by a group of israeli civilians who were making an improvised tollhouse, with flags and iron bars. They stopped the car, then proceeded to break all the windows.
I asked my brother, who was in the backseat with our little sister, to lay on her and so that she wouldn't be hurt, but I soon realized that if we didn't get out quick they would kill the most important people in my life right there.
I decided to leave the car, and I know I was probably leaving to my own death, but between keeping my own life and those of my siblings I chose theirs.
When I left my car one of the israeli jews saw the crucifix in my neck and yelled "YESHU!", then took it from my neck violently.
Then the beating started. In my face and my stomach. I can't remember much but I do remember one of them saying "we will beat you to death, just like your god was".
I could only think of Jesus at that time, and I know that if I am alive today, it is because He loves me very much.
Some might say I was delirious, but as I was being hit I saw my God, mauled as those israeli jews said He was, stretching His hands to me.
He saved my life, there's nothing else that can explain it. Christ was indeed mauled, but He also resurrected!
My brother eventually jumped off the car and fired his gun in the air, and only then the mob dispersed.
Today I faced death, but the Lord God spared me.
We couldn't go to the hospital as we can't go to the Jerusalem Hospital, but my brother cared for my wounds at home. He sewed me without anesthetics but I'm alive and this is what matters.
Here, the enemies of the Christians are the israeli jews... We live in a Christian neighborhood and every other day israeli soldiers try to evict us from our house, which we lawfully bought and have documentation thereof, because "a group of jewish students want to live here and they have the right to do so because they're jews."
We obviously didn't leave, but every day it gets harder to stay, but me and my brother have decided not to move because this is what Israel wants: that we leave our homes so they can occupy them.
We will resist! We won't give up!
Intensify your prayers for us, I ask especially to you in the West. We Christian Palestinians are also being massacred by Israel. We are your brethren and we're asking for help.
Never stop praying, because miracles exist and today I was one of them!"

From my book 1954 edition of "my catholic faith"... every parish was expected to have a Catholic Action committee to evangelise and convert protestants and defend public morals.
Those were the days.
Those were the days.
Our priest gave a sermon this morning, he said that the gift of the Holy Ghost is not given to make us feel good or self glorifying. For example, speaking in tongues is to make people of God to understand the Gospel, not to yell out loud without even knowing what he's saying, catching attention and feeling good about it. The ones make you do those are the EVIL SPIRITS. Two examples of speaking in tongues from the saints were both speaking the locals' languages while preaching as missionary.

Our fellow Catholics, please stop the self-deception. There's no Christian who truly loves Jesus that does not love Our Lady, and there's no Saint in Heaven that doesn't venerate her.

The Blessed Virgin said,
"Truly I tell you, daughter, that if for the love of God you are willing to be stripped of all worldly things and of the cravings of your own will, so much so that you wished neither to possess nor to crave anything in this world, I shall obtain for you from my son the merit which St. Bartholomew has for his flaying.
And if you patiently tolerate injuries and insults, and whatever inconveniences are inflicted on you, you will have the same merit which St Laurence has for the grilling of his body.
And when you gladly and humbly tolerate #criticisms, mockery and abuse from others, you will have the same merit that John the Evangelist had for the drinking of poison.
And if you are willing to trust me and obey me with respect to the carrying out of all that has just been said, I shall be at your side and I shall be with you, always helping you when it is appropriate."
The Revelations of St. Elizabeth of Toss
